Mei Yu’s mother cried secretly every day, completely disappointed in her husband. She now placed all her hopes on Mei Yu, hoping to somehow compensate for the paternal love Mei Yu had lost.
Later, unexpectedly, Mei Yu’s father became even more reckless, brazenly bringing his mistress home…
That day, Mei Yu’s mother came home early from work and opened the door to find the most disgraceful scene imaginable. At that moment, she was completely heartbroken. The last bit of a woman’s dignity was destroyed by her so-called husband.
Mei Yu’s mother quietly closed the door and silently left. At that moment, she was exceptionally calm, neither arguing nor making a scene.
She had long anticipated this day would come, just not so soon. A heart can be broken so silently that she could still walk out of the house normally that day.
And so, Mei Yu’s parents divorced. Her father, having benefited from a few years in the Heavenly Clan, won several engineering contracts and earned a lot of money. After the divorce, he left with his mistress to Hainan, seeking their own paradise.
Mei Yu’s mother did not become discouraged at all. She appeared especially strong in front of Mei Yu and always encouraged the young girl to live well and grow up quickly.
Afterward, they depended on each other. Mei Yu’s mother took care of Mei Yu, sent her to school, cooked meals, and provided meticulous care. Mei Yu was a sensible child who appreciated everything her mother did for her. Therefore, their mother-daughter relationship was particularly close and intimate. For each other, they were everything.
As a result, Mei Yu decided early on that when she grew up, she would ensure her mother could live a good life. She wanted her to stop being a servant and enjoy delicious food and a beautiful life in her later years.
When Mei Yu heard her mother say her illness was improving, she was especially happy. She felt she could finally help her mother and fulfill her filial duty through her own labor.
That day became a peaceful moment as they sat together and enjoyed a stable meal they hadn’t had in a long time.
